Chapter 81: Frankness.
In the evening, Lu Xiao and Ares entered the hotel booked in advance by General Wulan.
An officer sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling window looked up and met the gaze cast by Ares.
The former was an accident, but the latter was much calmer.
After being reminded by Ares, Lu Xiao realized that the officer in front of her was Lieutenant General Fred.
When the man saw them coming, he stood up and greeted them: "Hello, is this Mr. Lu Xiao? I am Fred. I am glad to see you here."
The height of the other party is the same as that of Ares. Similar to him, he has a resolute face and strong features. He is the kind of person who looks extremely upright.
It seems that he was born to be a soldier.
Being upright.
Facing Fred's self-introduction, Lu Xiao said generously and authentically: "Hello Lieutenant General Fred, seeing is better than hearing a hundred times. Nice to meet you. This is my partner, Ares. , thinking that since you are both soldiers, we should have many topics in common, so I brought him here, please don’t mind.”
In fact, it is very rude to bring one more person to this kind of meeting without greeting the other person in advance.
But only in this way can the other party see her attitude.
But the etiquette should still be done.
Fred did not expect that Lu Xiao would bring Ares with him.
The word partner was also used in his introduction.
Fred couldn't help but realize something.
Of course he had inquired about Ares as Lu Xiao's side husband before coming here. Fred also admired this young officer who had become a major general at a young age.
Suppressing the doubts in his heart, Fred made a gesture of invitation: "You have thought carefully about it, how can I mind, let's take a seat."
Ares walked behind the two of them. Behind her, when Lu Xiao sat down, he took the initiative to pull out the chair for her. Seeing this, Lu Xiao looked back and smiled at him.
This scene happened to be seen by Fred, and his heart skipped a beat. He couldn’t tell what he felt like.
He actually didn't know much about Lu Xiao, but he suddenly received an order from Admiral Crane, saying that a female had been arranged for him and asked him to meet her.
And this female is not an outsider, she is Admiral Ulan’s first female cub. Now she only has one side husband, and the position of house husband is still vacant.
After learning that Admiral Crane didn't say it explicitly, Fred already knew what he meant.
Admiral Crane wanted him to become Lu Xiao’s husband.
With his position as lieutenant general and family background, he can definitely become the husband of any female. Fred has never doubted this.
But for this blind date, he actually had no special expectations. After all, the females in the empire were nothing but arrogant and willful.
In their common understanding, males are tools that they can consume and enslave. However, they are few in number and their mental power has an effect on males.
If it is not necessary, Fred does not want to find a female master so quickly and give everything to her.
So when he met Lu Xiao, Fred's eyes lit up with her generosity and decency.
Whether the little female is really like this or just pretending, he can naturally tell.
Lu Xiao's eyes were clear, and there was a sense of calmness in his every move.
Even when Ares pulled out a chair for her, he would smile back and say thank you.
Although he couldn't tell anything from the brief contact, the feeling Lu Xiao gave him was not annoying, and he even wanted people to get to know him better.
"I just ordered some dishes. Take a look and see what else you want to eat. Major General Ares will also take a look."
Because of Lu Xiao's attention, Fred did not Ares' presence was not ignored.
Lu Xiao did not refuse, and took the menu and communicated with Ares: "This croissant looks good. I want one." Ares silently recorded it next to him, and then pointed to another dish on the menu: "This It looks good.”
“That’s it, and this one?”
“Okay.”
The two decided to call. Waiter, hand over the order.
Fred took in his eyes the intimate and natural interaction between the two.
There was a slight stir in his heart. He could see that Lu Xiao and Ares got along very harmoniously, and it was not something that females did to show off.
“You have a very good relationship.”
Lu Xiao was slightly startled when he heard this, and then smiled softly: “Thank you, Lieutenant General Fred, has been following my father?”
“Yes, General Crane and I belong to the same Third Army and have worked together for many years. Admiral Crane takes good care of me.”
Lu Xiao nodded: "I can tell."
If this were not the case, Lieutenant General Crane would not have introduced Fred to her.
The food came quickly. During the meal, Fred and Ares chatted about some military affairs.
Lu Xiao didn’t know much about these, so he didn’t participate and ate his food seriously.
I have to say that the restaurant that Admiral Crane ordered was the most enjoyable meal she had ever had out there, and the taste was pretty good.
By the end of the dinner, Ares and Fred had a great conversation and even added each other's contact information.
Seeing this, Lu Xiao did not stop him. If Ares could really make friends because of this, it would be a good thing.
She could see that Fred was indeed a very good male.
It would be good for Ares to make more friends like this.
"Today's dinner was very pleasant, thank you, Lieutenant General Fred." Lu Xiao expressed her gratitude to Fred again before getting in the car.
"You're welcome, it's an honor for me to have dinner with Mr. Lu Xiao."
"Lieutenant General Fred should see that I actually have no intention of finding a househusband, and I hope you can understand . "
Fred seemed to feel something, but he didn't expect the little female in front of him to actually say it.
I don’t know why, but I feel a little disappointed.
Originally Lu Xiao said this, and he should be happy. After all, he does not want to find a female protagonist now, and this is what he wants.
But after seeing Lu Xiao getting along with Ares, he actually felt a little envious.
If I am lucky enough to live with such a female, then getting married will become something that people look forward to.
“I should thank you for your honesty.”
Seeing that Fred understood what she meant, Lu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, and the smile on his face became more sincere: “Time is not up. Good morning, Lieutenant General Fred will have a rest today. I will invite you to my home tomorrow. Goodbye."
Even if you can't become friends with Fred, it would be a good thing if you can become friends.
As the saying goes, many friends lead to many paths.
Lu Xiao returned to the car and waved goodbye to Fred who was standing outside watching them leave.
Watch Lu Xiao and Ares leave.
Fred pursed his lips, a hint of loneliness flashed in his eyes.
Finally, he met a female that made him feel a little excited, but the other woman didn't have that kind of thought towards him.
